A flying dagger w/ steals and devs.  Effective and annoying.  Use Air Pends and a darkness mark.

If you look at what :air ran last war, we had some :air / :darkness decks that were reasonably effective, especially for the general and lieutenant. It's something that's worth considering just to give us a bit more PC.

As a bit of a heads up:

We have run out of time to Complete our Opening Vault.

So in the time remaining, we need to evaluate if our vault contains everything we want it to.

Our final vault count should come to 472 (that includes the propaganda bonus).

I have an idea. Will do some testing.

Code: [Select]
5oi 5oi 5oi 5oi 5oi 5oi 5op 5op 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5up 5up 5up 5up 5v2 5v2 5v2 7tb 7tb 7tb 7tb 7tb 7tbCloaks turn a deck prone to CC (and RTs in particular) into a deck worth using even against a CC heavy deck. The main selling point of this deck is not how good it is against a particular deck, but how it goes well even against an almost direct counter. Variations on this deck may be used as you wish, but I suggest not less than three cloaks...
If you think about it, Cloak is an awesome card, if you play it correctly. Against PC-heavy decks, it's essentially a free PC card drawn out in order to blast away your precious permanents. Against CC-heavy decks with no PC nor mass-CC (not that uncommon if you think about it... all those decks that splash time for RT, for instance) it's essentially mass-invulnerability for three turns. It's... good to have for us, I think. It can help even against earthquakes. That's of course if we can spare the space.

I still think we need to find room for more emphatic bonds. A single FFQ deck needs 4-5, and we have 3 for 2 FFQ decks.

I also think a single darkness duo would be good to get in there just so we have more PC.

If I had to guess, I think that we might be able to get away with a bit fewer pillars. Since we can convert 24 per round, we can take a little fewer perhaps.
